As an avid reader, I LOVE books. LOVE. If I could I would just read and read and read. However, as a full-time student with a part-time job, it's a bit hard to find time in my day to sit down and read. Although these keep me busy, I get a chance every now and then to read. And when I do, I READ for a long time, because most of the time the book is just so great that I cannot find it in me to put it down.

I've been attempting to reread a favorite series of mine and I figured I'd share my thoughts on it with you all. However, I will only give a brief synopsis on the first novel. This is because details may be given away if I were to share information about the other two books.

Written by Amanda Hocking, this series is called the "Trylle" trilogy:

The first novel introduces our main character, Wendy Everly. She's never really fit in or felt quite like everybody else, even when at home. It isn't until she meets Finn Holmes, the mysterious guy who seems to know more about her than she knows about herself. He reveals the truth about her — she's a changeling, someone who was switched at birth, and he's here to take her home, her real home. Swept into this new world with new people, Wendy comes to find out who she really is through the entire series.

"Book One: Switched."

"Book Two: Torn."

"Book Three: Ascend."

Within this series, you'll relate to some characters and find a love-hate for others. A fantasy world unlike any other, you'll become immersed into the world of the "Trylle." All three of these books are really well written and have a great fantasy/paranormal romance. With a new use of fantasy character race/style (Trylle), this novel brings something fresh to the table despite the series beginning in 2010. It will bring you all the feels. I love it, as it has become my favorite series, and I would 110 percent recommend to all who enjoy fantasy and/or romance novels!

(With this, there is another series that Hocking has written called "The Kanin Chronicles." In the "Trylle" trilogy, you learn who the Kanin are. If you decide to read the "Trylle" trilogy and absolutely love it like I do, then you will definitely want to read "The Kanin Chronicles" too!)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
